Politics and high school sports: Should they mix?

I don’t know what your thoughts are on Arizona’s new immigration law, and frankly, this really isn’t the place for it to be discussed. I’m sure it would be a heated topic, and those with views can definitely head over to the Eagle’s editorial blog at blogs.kansas.com/weblog/.

I bring the topic up because of a story in the Chicago Tribune about a high school that has canceled a girls basketball trip to Arizona because of the immigration law. Your thoughts on this?

One thing to note, this would not affect Kansas, which doesn’t allow teams to travel that far for anything related to athletics.
